Lankan Muslims in London and Political Myopia




GroundviewsThere was a protest that took place yesterday by a group of Sri Lankan Muslims in Britain outside the Sri Lankan High Commission in London mostly regarding the spate of anti Muslim activities that have been occurring in Sri Lanka. But in this instance what the group responsible for yesterday's protest sought to achieve is unclear, what is pointedly obvious is the blatant incongruence between what they did and what they thought its influence would be. The very premise of having any such protest is not just questionable, but can create a cycle of many political unknowns. There are significant issues that the Muslim Community in Sri Lanka Currently Faces, Their Plight Most depressing and worrying is, As I have highlighted  here . But knee jerk reactions to or exploitation of a genuine plight to gain isolated political mileage is not the prudent way to operate.
